ActewAGL are advising the following:
Until 25 March 2009, ActewAGL is carrying out essential maintenance to the water network that supplies parts of North Canberra.
Customers in the suburbs of Hackett, O’Connor and Watson may have experienced a temporary reduction in water pressure over the past two days as a result of this work.
The temporary reduction in water pressure will continue until the work is completed mid next week.
If you are experiencing serious problems as a result of the reduced water pressure, please call ActewAGL’s faults and emergencies line on 13 11 93.
When the maintenance work is complete, ActewAGL will re-establish normal network configuration, which may cause temporary discolouration of the water supply to parts of North Canberra including Dickson, Downer, Hackett, Lyneham, O’Connor and Watson.
